Social impact experiences give Airbnb guests a chance to learn more about your mission and causes — and have some fun along the way.

Raise Funds: 100 percent of the proceeds you raise from your social impact experience go directly to your organisation. Airbnb waives all booking fees!

Your Experience, Your Way

With Airbnb social impact experiences, you’re in control. You get to choose the experience, your experience host, when and where it takes place, and more.

Your Schedule: You can offer your social impact experiences as often as you like. Many nonprofits choose to host experiences about twice a month.
Your Place and Host: You choose where your social impact experience takes place and who leads it — be it a staff member, a board member, or a volunteer.
Your Price: You have complete control over how much your social impact experience costs, and you can change the price whenever you want.

Educate, Inform, and Enlighten: Arts workshops, collaborative projects, and behind-the-scenes tours give guests a chance to learn something new and gain a greater appreciation for your cause.

A community built on sharing

Airbnb began in 2008 when two designers who had space to share hosted three travellers looking for a place to stay. Now, millions of hosts and travellers choose to create a free Airbnb account so they can list their space and book unique accommodation anywhere in the world.

Airbnb helps make sharing easy, enjoyable, and safe. We verify personal profiles and listings, maintain a smart messaging system so hosts and guests can communicate with certainty, and manage a trusted platform to collect and transfer payments.
